There is light at the end of the tunnel for Tom.

Hannah's leaving Bridge Farm. She thanks Helen for her support over Brian and Tom's disagreement. Hannah invites Helen to her farewell drinks in the Bull. Tom tells Hannah he'll miss her, and wishes her luck. She and Brenda then head to the station.

Helen tells Tom he needs to cheer up. Brenda's completely carrying him at the moment. Tom lashes out - it's alright for Helen, she's sorted. Helen says Tom's obsessed with himself. He needs to take an interest in Bridge Farm.

Pip helps David in the lambing shed. Ruth pops in, having taken the cows out. Ruth tells Pip she'll cook for her tonight. Yes, she knows it's got to be local but she's fed up of Pip eating eggs every night! Later, they sit down to eat, but Pip's not happy. The food's got salt in it - that's not from within five miles! She'll eat what she can, but she'll cook for herself at the weekend.

Tom arrives home and Matt phones him. He wants a stake in his business. Tom's surprised but delighted. He apologises to Brenda for being grumpy. He'll make it up to her. She says she's so proud of him. He really deserves it.
